hello boosters,
I have  a class ( say user_type )  that i would like to use for storing 
cmd line option and therefore i have a validate function for the same
void validate     (   boost::any& v,      const std::vector<std::string>& 
xs,    <user_type> *   target,    int i     )
I wanted to know if it is possible to access the actual variable in which 
the option would be stored from within the validate function.
Meaning if i the options_description is something like  below:
//here user_type_object  is an instance of user_type
("option_name" , po::value<user_type>(&user_type_object), "some option" ) 
Is it possible to access the user_type_object in the validate function? If 
so please let me know how ? 
P.S:  I am resending this mail as my mail sys. crashed after i sent it the 
first time in morningso not sure if this was sent. If any one has replied 
earlier request
that they redo as i have lost earlier mails
Thanks & Rgds,
